Eagle camper shell window slides back and forth.

[Impalanator]

Hi All,
My 14 year old son just bought a 2001 Ram 2500 Laramie with the 5.9 Cummins. It came with an Eagle color matched camper shell. He put new handles and struts on the back window of the camper shell, but he is having an issue where the window will slide back and forth about 1 inch in each direction. If it is pegged to one side, the strut hits camper shell and the window doesn’t close. He tried tightening the screws on the window hinge, but it still slides. Does anyone who what we can check to get this fixed?

Thanks much

How does a 14-year-old buy a vehicle?

He got a work permit and has been working on a family farm. In Missouri there’s no legal age to own a vehicle so we applied for the title to be in his name.

Is there any type of set screws some where along the edge or sides? A picture would probably help.

Thanks for the reply, I attached some pictures, I did see a screw hole on top on the outside that didn’t have a screw in it.

It's probably a special set screw missing, something short that keeps it from moving would be my guess.
